语法填空训练(二十)

People who have lost the ability to understand or use words due to brain damage __31__(call) aphasics(失语症患者). Such patients __32__ are mentioned here can be extremely good at something else. From the changing expressions on speakers’ faces and the tones of their voices, they can tell lies __33__ truths.

Doctors studying the human brain have even compared this power to _34_ of a dog with an ability to find out the drugs __35_(hide) in the baggage.Recently, scientists carried out tests to see whether all that was said about aphasics was true. They studied a mixed group of people. Some were normal while _36_ were aphasics. It was proved that the aphasics were far ahead of the normal people in recognizing false speeches -- in most cases, the normal people were fooled by words, but the aphasics were not.

Dr. Oliver Sacks mentioned a particular case in _37_ hospital. Some aphasics were watching the president _38_(give) a speech on TV. Since the president had been an actor _39_(early), making a good speech was no problem for him.

But his way of speaking had the opposite effect on the patients. They didn’t seem to believe him. Instead, they burst into laughter. The aphasics knew that the president did not mean a word of __40__ he was saying.

When you start talking about good and bad manners you immediately start meeting difficulties. Many people just cannot agree __31__ they mean. We asked a lady, who replied that she thought you could tell a well-mannered person __32_ the way they occupied the space around them.?However, __33__ second person thought that this was __34__ a question of civilized behavior than good manners. Instead, this other person told us a story about an American who __35 _ (invite) to an Arab meal in one of the countries of the Middle East.

The American hadn’t been told much about the kind of food he might expect. __36__ he had known about Arab food, he might have behaved better. Immediately before him was a very flat piece of bread that looked, to him, very much like a napkin. __37__ (pick) it up, he put it into his collar, so that it fell across his shirt. His Arab host, who had been watching, said nothing, __38__ immediately copied the __39__ (act) of his guest. And that, said __40__ second person, was a fine example of good manners.

33. a 表示“另一个”，并不强调顺序，用不定冠词。

34. more 由后面的than可知，要用比较级。
